One year ago . . . & HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!

Just a warning, this post, at best, has only a tenuous connection to running.Friday marked the one-year anniversary of my graduation from law school!!

Aside from the law-related accomplishments, I'm so grateful for my time in law school for so many other reasons. I made a lot of really, really great friends (one of said friends has a fantastic blog where she has made a commitment to trying to new things every week for a year). Also, it was during law school that I made the somewhat rash decision to run my first marathon, the 2012 Bank of America Chicago Marathon.

The day I graduated from law school was also the day that I first met my super adorable nephew. He was ~4 weeks old and my brother and awesome sister-in-law drove all the way from Iowa to Tennessee!! He was so tiny!! Isn't he precious?

Finally, this special lady was on-hand for the occasion. That would be my amazing mother. There are a lot of people that I have to thank for every good thing in my life, but she is definitely at the top of that list!! I love you mommy! Happy Mother's Day!!
